mini_dachshund Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 I JUST GOT A NEW BT014 FRONT BUT DID NOT CHANGE THE REARS. THE REARS ARE DUNLOP SPORTMAX 252. IAM RIDING A fz6 2006. I NO LONGER FEEL AS CONFIDENT IN BENDS BECAUSE THE FRONT SEEMS TO BE LIGHT AND LIVELIER. IT ALSO TRAMLINES A BIT WHICH MY OLD 252 FRONTS DIDNT. ANYONE THINK THIS MIXING BRANDS IS OK OR NOT?
Tommy2Wheeler Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 ive kept pairs most of the time, but currently running with michelin pilot sport front and a bto14 rear and i actually think its brilliant!! i dont think theres much of a problem as long as there are similar tread pattern and compound, as well as general condition. respect your tyres and they will respect you is what i always think.
R1Mad Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 As far as I know it's not a good idea, never did it my self.
yoda Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 It probably won't notice until you reach an extreme point in riding, and then you'll find out very quickly.
martin young Posted September 28, 2007 Posted September 28, 2007 seems to me his original post says it all
